What is SpringIX?
SpringIX is a switching fabric located in the Bluebird Underground, deep within the limestone deposits of Southwest Missouri. A network may connect and peer, putting themselves closer to content caching while also improving local network connectivity.
Bilateral peering
Establish direct peering with other SpringIX members over the exchange at no charge.
Multilateral peering
Peer with our route server to exchange routes with many neighbors at once.
Private VLAN
Private VLANs are available for those requiring a private network with another SpringIX member.
Remote peering
SpringIX is directly connected to other IXPs. This enables us to offer remote peering services to them.
